单词 anusara
释义

Anusaran.

Brit. /ˌanjuːˈsɑːrə/, U.S. /ˌæn(j)uˈsɑrə/, /ˌæn(j)uˈsɛrə/
Origin: A borrowing from Sanskrit. Etymon: Sanskrit anusāra.
Etymology: < Sanskrit anusāra act of following, conformity, pursuit < anusṛ to go after < anu- after + sṛ to move, flow (probably < the same Indo-European base as classical Latin salīre to leap: see salient adj.).The Anusara School of Hatha Yoga was founded in 1997 by American yogi John Friend. The name is frequently incorrectly interpreted by practitioners as meaning ‘flowing with grace’, probably based on Friend's own reading of the term (although no discussion of this has been traced); compare flowing with grace, title of a workshop by Friend ( 4th Ann. Yoga Jrnl. Convent., inserted in Yoga Jrnl. 146 (May/June 1999)).
Yoga.
More fully Anusara yoga. A proprietary name for: a form of hatha yoga which combines Tantric spiritual practices with an emphasis on the proper alignment of the body in movements and poses.
